CEMENT ROOFING.
I ‘HIS article has been thoroughly tested by
‘ builders, Architects, and others, and the
experience ofycars has proved it to be the
cheapest and most durable roofing in use.
We call attention to tlie, following facts :
lat—It is fire and water proof.
_ 2d—From its great elasticity it is not inju-
riously affected by extremes of heat and cold.
3d—It is adapted to all kinds of Roofs,
whether steep or-flat, and is not in want of
constant repairs, as is .the case with metal and
other roofs.
4th—The cost is only about One-Half that
of Tin, and it is twice as durable.
It is readily applied to Old Shingle Roofs,
without removing the shingles, which is a
great desideratum to parties who do not wish
to risk having their ceilings and furniture ru-
ined, while repairs are being made.
Leaky Tin and Metal Roofs are readily rc-
paircd with Gutta Percha Cement, and
prevented from further corrosion and leaking
thereby insuring a perfectly water—tight roof
for many years. '- ‘
Specimens of the Rcofing can be seen by
calling on the subscriber, at South N orwalk.
.All orders by letter will receive prompt at-

And judge your brother kindly.

Burns said it 'in this way:
“Then gently scan your brother man,
Still gentler ulster woman ; .
Though they may go a kennlu' wrung,
To step aside is human;
One point must still be greatly dark,
The moving why they do it:
And just as lamely can ye mark
How for perhaps they rue it! '

Decidedly can try us,
He knows each chord—its various tone.
Each spring—its various bias ;

We never can adjust it;
What‘s done we partly may compute,
But know not what‘s resisted.” ,

to go’n ’lect a man you didn’t like i What
right had we to vote for Bell or Douglas or
anybody else without you was satisfied ?—
don’t you be too hard on us. ’Tain‘t likely
we’ll ever do sich a thing again. We’ve just
been a fastin’, and prayin’ over it, and askin’ i
you and God to forgive us.» You will if he
won’t,won’t you now? It was naughty of us to
make ya so mad, South Caroliny, that ye
would go and fire on the stars and stripes,
and hit. us slap in the face, but you must for-
give us for provoking on yo to hit us one i
cheek, and jest take and hit us again on t’oth-
cr. That's ’cordin' to scriptcr. Fact is—.
’twas all them lanterns, them Wide A'Vvakes
—tliem ’ere boys—they would do it; they
would some on ’cm leave their mothers'
apron strings, and some 'on ’em leave their
prayer meetin's, and whatnot, and go fram-
pooslng round the country, hollerin’ hurrah,
Wide Awake, when honest people was
abed; but they’re mighty ’shamed on it now.
You've punished ’em, South Caroliny, by get-
tin’ so mad, ye liit yerself, and they’ve fasted
and acknowledged the justice of the punish-
ment. ' 01d fogics that never found out that
they was governed by false pride of opinion
afore,tlio’ everybody also knew it well enough
have kept the day you set ’em, South Caroli-
ny, on purpose to confess it. And so they’ve
howled and wliiued and blubbered, and grow
lean with living on bread and water gruel.—:
0. South Caroliny, do have some pity on the
poor crecters! .
Forgive us for your treasonsble conspiracy
against us. Forgive us for lettia’ you steal
millions out o' the treasury, and for not hav-
in’ any more there for ye to steal. Forgive
us on the the head, switch as in the face, tar
and feather us, and insult as generally! For-
give us for not gifting where you could kick
us more conveniently. It was wrong of us
to go and git into Fort Sumter, and put ye to
so much trouble in kickin’ of us and holding
our nose to the grindstone, but mercy, mercy
the starch is all out of us now that we see
you starvin‘ and cavin’ in ! Don‘t know not-
ly which is longest now, our heels or our
faces. Rather think its faces.
South Caroliny, dear darling little shrew,
little Virago, little termegant, dew come back
and give us just one more affectionate hug—
!liere’s a duck. Won’t ye? Don’t ye see, ye ‘
fired on our stars and stripes seventeen shots
and we run away with our long heels '9 We
didn’t bombard your nest of rebels and blow
you sky high, as we could have done, and
therefore sec—just look i we git down on the

bunkers in the State, a regular cabinet of
fossils, a ginooinc museum of galvanized

law books, to wipe out every thing that looks
like liberty. We propose to abolish the let-

REACTION m FLORIDA.—A recent letter
from Jacksonville, Florida, to a gentleman
in New York city, says:
“Secession, so rampant when we arrived
here in December, is clearly in its decending
node. The custom-house has begun to col-
lect duties for the State of Florida, otherwise
there appears on the surface no evidence of
State Government. The President's Inau-
gural made little excitement, but. even that
seems to have died away. Union men are as
thick as hops here in Jacksonville, though
this is the hot-bed of secession in East-Flori-
da. One of the principal men in this place
told me today that if an election were held
in the State, two-thirds of the votes would
be found on the Union side. However this
may be, I am satisfied by my own observa-
tion that the fever is dying out very rapidly,
and unless some speedy stimulent be applied
there is great danger of resulting synscopc.
The Union men here scout the idea of any
danger to the Union feeling resulting from
the rc-enforccment of the forts. The lines
are fast being definitely drawn, and most
men are for the one government or the other
squarely and implicitly. The Union men
publicly avow their sentiments, and I think
a little time only is wanted to enable them to
carry all before them in this State.

Thomas Jefferson, and the secession-
ists are decidedly at variance. The former
in the 9th vol. of his works, says: “When
any one State in the American Union rc-
fuses obedience to the confederation by
which they have bound themselves, the rest
have a natural right. to compel them to obe-
dience. Congress would probably exercise
long patience before the 'would recur to
force, but if the cause ultimately required it,
they would use that reCurrence, Should
this Case ever arise, they' will probably co-

or in favor of breaking it up and dissolving
the Union.
The Democratic State Convention which
met at New Haven, on the 6th day of Feb-
ruary last, after nominating J amcs C. Loom-
is of Bridgeport as their candidate for Gov-
ernor, proceeded to pass a. set of resolutions
as the platform, or exposition of so-called
Democratic principles, upon which the Dem-
ocratic party should go before the people at
this Spring Election, and in support of which
they ask your suffragcs on the first Monday
of April next.
Let us examine them. That there may
be no misunderstanding we will quote them
entire :'
Whereas, The confederacy of the States is
now menaced by imminent danger, threaten-
ing not only a disruption thereof, but a civil
war between its antagonistic sections: and
Whereas, it is the duty of all political organi-
zations to exert their utmost influence to pre-
serve intact the Union of the States, and to
restore that spirit of fraternity and brother-
hood which once characterize ur whole
people: and whereas, it is due our breth-
ren of each and every State, that a full,
frank and firm expression ofour views should
be announced; therefore
Resolred, That it is the opinion of the Dem-
ocracy of Connecticut, in convention assem-
bled: That this Govcrnment is a confederacy
of sovereign and independent States, based
and founded upon tlic' equal rights of each,
and any legislation trenching upon the great.
principle of their equality, is a wanton viola-
tion of the spirit and letter of the constitu-
tional compact.
So the best that the modern Democracy
can say for our federal government is that it
is a confederacy of States .’ Those who
framed it thought otherwise, and considered
it National in its character and supreme as
to all matters within its jurisdiction. The
Nations of Europe treat it as a. Nation, not a
confederacy. In the House of Representa-
tives the people as a people are directly repre-
sented. And the people vote for President
indirectly it is true, but‘without any reference
to State action. Why then should the sham
Democracy attempt to dcmcan the character
of our National government by calling it a
mere corrfedcracy, save that they mean to in-
siuuatc that it can be destroyed at. the pleas- '
ure of any individual, and by demoralizing
public sentiment, would prepare the wayfor
the overthrow of the Government they des—
pise ?
Resolved, That the present lamentable con-
dition of the country, finds its origin in tlic
unconstitutional acts and sectional spirit of a
great Northern party, the principles of whose
Organization deny to the people of one class
of States the enjoyment and exercise of the
Same political rights claimed and demanded
by another class of States; thus ignoring and
destroying the great political truth Which is
the foundation of our Government and the
vital principle of the Constitution of the Uni-
ted States.
This Resolution embodies a miserable
falsehood. The leaders of the Southern Re-
bellion have declared again and again that
they have been laboring to bring about this
state of affairs for thirty years. Every intel-
ligent man knows that. the true source of our
troubles is a refusal on the part of the Dem-
ocratic leaders to submit to the decision of
the ballot. box. They prefer treason and re-
bellion with all the frightful chances of an-
aichy, war and carnage, (for they are now
actually prosecuting a vigorous war against
the U. S. government, while the U. S. exer-
cises the greatest forbearance towards them,)
rather than simply fulfil their constitutional
duties and render obedience to the lawful
government. What has become of the old-
fashioned Democratic doctrine that “the will
of the majority constitutionally expressed
must be obeyed?" Repudiatcd and scouted
by the moderuDemocracy, it forms the solid
support of the true democratic faith held by
the Republicans of the present day. No, the
true source of our difficulties and dangers is
the determination of the political leaders
of the Cotton States, and their allies in Con-
necticut and through the North, to break up
the government rather than obey the Consti-
tution and Laws when they have no longer
the control of office and the power to plun-
der.
Again, this resolution contains another
falsehood in asserting that Republican prin-
ciples deny to our Southern fellow citizens
the enjoyment of full political equality. Iri-
dced to place the rights of every citizen be-
yond cavil, Republican votes have aided to
originate in Congress an amendment to the
Constitution declaring that that Constitution,
shall never be amended so as to permit Con-
gress to interfere with the domestic institu-
tions of any State.
Resolved. That the pernicious doctrine of
coercion instead of conciliationdo be applied
to tlicseccding States, which is now advo-
cated a; urged by tlieleadcrs of the Northern
sectional party, is utterly at war with the
exercise of right reason, mature judgment,
and the principles of the Constitution of the
United States, and should be strongly resist-
ed by every lover of our common country—
by every well-wishcr to the best interests of
the human race, as opposed to the progress
and civilization of the age, as the sure pre-
cursor of an internccinc war in which would
be sacrificed the lives of hundreds of thou-
sands of our follow-citizens, the expenditure
of countless millions of treasure, the destruc-
tion of the moral and commercial interests
of our people; and not only fail of its avowed
object—the restoration of the Union—but dc- ,
fcat forever its reconstruction.
The Connecticut Democracy thinks that
the Crittenden Compromise would harmon-
izc the North and South. How comes it
then that Southern Secessionists say no, zuid
turn their backs upon it? '
It is well known that. this so-callcd Com-
promise is far in advance of the most extreme
Southern claims, made at. the Charleston
Presidential Conventionnvhich the Northern
Democ'racy‘then utterly repudiated. Have
they since learned that they then made a
mistake 2’ Are they now willing by 8. Con-
stitutional Amendment to cngraft Slavery on
the Territory' south of 36" 30, beyond the
power of the people of that territory ever to
get rid of it?
that “pernicious doctrine of coercion?” All
that it can mean is the maintenance of the
government and the enforcement of the laws.
What is lain but a rule to which all must
submit under pain of compulsion? What is
government but a power residing in the cons-
titutional authority to compel, (coerce if you
prefer the term,) every individual to obey the
law. We propose no other coercion than
no other than free men should and must sub-
mit to if they wouldprescrvc their freedom
from anarchy. But this 4th Resolution
means, if it means anything, that the U. S.
government has no force to maintain its ex-
istence against treason and rebellion, no
power to punish those who steal U. S. prop-
erty, no power to collect federal revenue if
any body objects to paying the duty, none to
enforce the laws if any body chooses to
break them, none to put down an armed hos-
tile force that seizes the Unitcd'Statcs forts,
and has even threatened to occupy the seat
of government itself. Away with such a
pernicious political licrcsy. The disastrous
effects predicted in this resolution from an
enforcement of the laws would be sure to
follow from the lawlessness that this resolu-
tion would engender.
Resolved, That the Senators and chrcscu-
tativcs from Connecticut. in the present Con-
gress of the United States, bciiig specially
charged by virtue of their office with the du-
ty of protecting and preserving the Lnion in
its integrity, have utterly failed to meet the
requirements of their high posdion in this
time of iminent danger; that they have inan-
ifested an inexcusable indifference to the we!-
fare of the people, by steadily refusing either
to present on their own part any proposdmu
looking towards compromise and peace, or
to vote for any such offer when presented by
others; and have disappointed the just cx-
pcctations of the people of this State, who
had hoped that their Representatives Would
coduct themselves in the present crisis of
their country, as statesmen rather than as
politicians. . '
We know that our Senators and Repre-
sentatives have been ever ready to adopt an y
measure of conciliation that could be pro-
posed without trenching upon the verge of
principle. Beyond this they could not go
and be true men, nor should true incn ask
them to go further; as. for UK! rest of the
resolution we are willing to submit it to ll!C
verdict of the people :it the polls.
Resolved, That the so-callcd Personal Lib-
erty Bill upon the statute book offliis State,
adopted under the distinct avowal that its
object was to prevent the execution of lllC
Fugitive Slave Law, is a violation of onc of
the provisions of the Constitution of tliani-
ted States, of which our Southern brcihrcii
have a just right to c01iiplaiii,,aiid that good
faith, honor, and patriotism dcniaiid its rcpcnl.
This is another deliberate untrutli, a weak
invention of the cucmy. TllC (Irowal and
real object of flint law was to prcvcnt the
kidnapping of free lllCll. Every one who
knows anything about the. actual working of
tlic Fugitive Slave Law is aware that. more
freeman have been carried into slavery under
its operation, than there have been actual
slates ever claimed. This bill was only to
give a free man a chance for a fair hearing.
Besides if it be unconstitutional the Courts
would soon declare it so, and pronouncc it
null and void. Furthermore the Souilicrii
leaders say quite unanimously that the For-
sonal Liberty Bills are not the question in
dispute, and it would make no difference if
they were all repealed. Why then try to
make a point of so weak an argument?
We now invite you to read the exposition
of Republican principles adopted at New
Haven by the State Convention, on the 27111
of February, and contrast the noble, patriot-
ic and just sentiments contained in it with
the miserable pica for Secession which we
have just examined.
Resolved, That the Constitution was or-
dained and established by the people of the
“United States," in order to form a more per-
fcct Union establish justice, insure domestic
tranquility, provide for the common defense,
promote the general welfare, and to secure
the blessings of liberty; and the same, when
adopted and ratified by the people, become a
sacred bond of Union for themselves and
their posterity, , through all coming time
and generations.”
Resolved, That in the language of Jackson‘s
Proclamation of 18:32, “the Constitution of
the United States forms a government, not a
league; 3 government in which all the poo-
plc are represented, which operates dircclly
upon the people iudivnlually, not. upon ilic
States; that. each State having expressly
parted with so may powers as to constitute
jointly with lllC other States a single nation
cannot, from that period possess any right to
secede; because such secession does not
break a league, but destroys the unity of a
nation. To say that any State may at pleas-
ure secede from the United States, is to say
that the United Suitcs are not a nation."
Resolved, That no man, no combination of
men, no community or State, wuliiu the bin-
its of this country, can lawfully throw oll‘or
escape the obligation, suprcui - and pcrpctu-
al, of obedience lo the National Constitution
and to the National Government.
’Ii’esolrrd, That the Democratic Convention
lately held in this State, by ailopiing a rcso-
lution which Openly proolainis iiic ircasoiia-
blc doctrine of Mr. Calhoun, in language
significantly quoted from Mr. Calhoun him-
self, has given aid a- cohifort to the cncinics of
the Constitution and the Union, and has fur—
nished new and startling prool'of the truth-
fulness of their party claim, that, Democracy
in Connecticut and South Carolina arc one
and the same thing. . . .
Resolved, That. it is the part of patriotism
and duty to sustain tlic Constitution of the
country and the Union oftlic States, and the
enforcement of the laws, and we hereby
pledge ousclvcs to maintain protect and dc-
!cnd, separately and unilcdly, tlicsc grcat
principles of public liberty and national satc-
ty, against all enemies at home and abroad.
Resolved, That for the sake of peace, and
especially for the sake of those patriotic men
who are struggling against Democratic trca-
son in Maryland, Virginia, Kentucky, ’l‘cn-
ncsscc, and other Southern States, ihc Re-
publicans of this State are willing to nice!
them on common grounds with any sacrifice
ofinerc feeling or ol'iiitcrcst; and we invite
them to join us in declaring that “the Union
must and shall be preserved.”
Platform to which we still adhere, as the la-
tcst and best expression of our sentiments,
what we ourselves are willing to submit. to; .
Resolved, In the languagcoffilic Chicago,
April ncxt ?
Remember that every candidate of the
Democratic party for cvery office must stand
upon the same platform of principles. Loom-
is, their candidate for Governorfin his speech
accepting the nomination, declared,however
much it may be denied, the U. S. Govern-
ment actually broken up, and added these
words, “I will not say unreasonably!” No
Republican could dare to say that and expect
to remain an hour longer in the party.
We ask you then, Reader, to vote the Re-
publican Ticket straight through. Don’t
stop with the State Ticket. Remember our
noble and staunch Representative .in Con-
gross, Ori‘is S. Ferry, and let our State Leg-
islature bc Republican, as far as your vote
can make it. New Hampshire. has gone
more strongly Republican than it did last
year. The eyes of the country are upon us.
Let us not fail of our duty.
One word more on the economy of gov»
crnmcu! and we have done.
Our State debt. in 1858, April lst, was
$85,000. 1850, April 15!, it. Was $65,000.—
1860. April lst, it was $35,110. The fiscal
year closes this month, and we are informed
by Mr. llciidcc, the Stat'c Treasurer, that the
State is Out of Debt, or at most owing loss ‘
than $4,000.
Compare these results Of a Republican
administration, with the course of the Uni-
tcd States Government under 4 years of
Democratic rule, with James Buchanan at
the head of affairs, and tell us by your vote
at. the polls which you prefer. .

The State Ticket.
The Norwich Bulletin speaks of the Re-
publican State Tiékct as follows : '
The Convciiiioii which met in Hartford in
1857, and, nominated William A. Bucking-
liam for Governor, did the best day’s work
ever done for the Republican party of the
State and the nation. He was nominated
then, because his friends iii-the eastern part ‘
of the Slate, knowing what manner of man
lie was, and what manner of man was want-
cd for the time and place, were determined
to prcss him into it, and they did so. He
was nominated the next year, in accordance
with the usage which had obtained of run- ‘
iiing the same candidate two years insucces-
siou. lIc ucccptcd the nomination the sec-
ond time in the bclicflliat at the end of that
term he could be allowed to retire from the
field and another tickct be nominated. Du-
ring ibcsc two years the fact had dawned
upon ilic people of the Slate, that he was not
only a wise, judicious and capable Chief
Magistrate, but an carncst, honest, whole-
soulcd, Christian man. and that everybody
llOiyOlll)‘ :iduiircd or respected, .or honored,
or liked, but way down to the bottom Of their
hearts lured him for all the qualities that
made him what he is. .
Bcnjaiilin Douglas OfMiddlciown, our can‘-
didatc for Lieutenant Governor, is one of' the '
Republicans of the State, a man of influence
in his party, and well known, not only in
Middle-sex Couniy, but in the Mole State.—
IIc has for several years occupied a promi~
iicnt position in politics, and has always
bccn an earnest active Republican since the
organization of the Republican party. With
a free heart and open band 110 has stood at
the head of lllC Republicans in Middlesex
County, that stronghold of the blackest sort
of Locofocoisui, and at all times, under all
circumstances, been true to the cause, and
unflinching in its support. The party have
leaned on him and he has never failed them.
His nomination is the selection of the right
man for the right place, and his name is a
tower of strength to the ticket.
J. Hammond Trumbull, our candidate for
Secretary of State has been clcrk in the Sec-
retary's ofiicc for several years. Wehave no
fear of‘contradiction when we say he is the
best mar. in the State for the position. ‘ His
pcrfcct familiarity with all the details of the
business of the office, his industry and fideli-
ty in the discharge of his duties, his interest
in, and thorough knowledge of the history
of the State, qualify him in an unusual de-
grcc for tho position. It is not a mere com~
pliiiicutary nomination, but the selection ofa
man who will perform the duties of the of-
fice, and givc the State "value received” for
the salary.
Ezra Dean of Woodstock, the candidate
for 'l‘rcasui'cr is a manufacturer and a farm-
cr. He has twice served in the State Senate,
and oncl‘ rcprcscnicd his town in the House
oflicprcscumtivcs. In his own town and
County, he has a high reputation for honasty
and sterling integrity, as well as for energy
of cha motor, and thorough business habits,
all of which arc qualities eminently fitted to
the position for which he is named.
Lcmaii W. Ciiilcr of Watcrtown, the can-
(lidiitc for Comptroller, was Senator from the
Sixtccnih District in 1850, and was President ,
pro [rm of the Senate in that session. In. -

The Liicliiicld Enquirer also says:
This Slate docs not contain a purer, or
more universally cstccmcd citizcn than Ben-
jamin Douglas. A well-known manufactu-
rer, be has ever commanded the love and con-
fidcucc ofliis employees and all his . neigh~
burs. He will give strength to the ticket in
Middlcscx, the darkest county in tlic_ State,
and increase the confidence of our friendsin
the Second Congressional District in the
rc-clcclion of honest John Woodruff.
